The One Bed Dilemma (Movie Recap, Alone Together)

In this episode, we're bringing you a recap of the 2022 film, Alone Together, starring none other than Katie Holmes. This movie takes place in the not so distant past of 2020, a time most of us are actively trying to forget. But we dove right into this tall glass of dramatics and bad decisions, set against the backdrop of the time our planet collectively shut down.  

Enjoy an episode full of hilarity and bad life advice, it's a uniquely entertaining retelling of a movie that perhaps did not need to be made. 

Passive Aggressively In Love (Movie Recap, The Perfect Date)

The Teapot is Shooketh (A Holiday Special Tea Sesh)

This one is a special episode of Fiction Fixation! In this Holiday special, hosts Courtney and Rose take full advantage of that magical week after Christmas, when expectations are at an all time low, and becoming a couch is a suitable goal. We will chat more informally about movies, shows, and tropes. The ones we love and the ones we want to set on fire and throw into a black hole. 

But that's not all, for the first time ever we will spill some tea on episodes that never made it to air. Get ready for behind-the-scenes stories and anecdotes that will help you get to know us a bit better.

It’s Mom, Hi. I’m The Problem (Movie Recap, Candy Jar)

Every once in a while we are confident enough to say our recap of a movie is more entertaining than the actual movie...this is one of those times. Netflix's 2018 movie Candy Jar is about two prep school kids competing for the spot of #1 nerd whilst ignoring their blatant mommy issues...MEANWHILE our recap is about two judgey millennials who have a knack for fun banter, inappropriate jokes and rare little nuggets of wisdom and truth. What can we say, except, you're welcome. Hope you enjoy!

The VP of Vibes Fell Off A Cliff (Movie Recap, Falling for Christmas)

Thanksgiving is over and it's time to, you know...fight seasonal depression--I mean--prepare for Christmas!

The one we know and love from Mean Girls etc. It's the cheesy, Christmasy fun we love to drag. Come join us for this holly, merry, hilarious recap. Ignore the Grinch, because she makes an appearance of a nose-ring wearing white girl *cough* Courtney.

It’s Always The Town Weirdo (Movie Recap, Where The Crawdad Sings)

We watched the movie so you don't have to. Check out our full recap of the movie, where we muse about the town weirdo and the perplexities of a maybe murder.
